Choosing Your Ideal Four-Star in Genshin Impact's Lantern Rite Event
Prioritize obtaining a desired character or constellation if you're missing one. If not, consider these recommendations:
The standout choice is the new Anemo shielder, Lan Yan. Her utility extends beyond survivability; she offers resistance shredding, a crucial asset for teams lacking healing, such as those featuring Hu Tao or Arlecchino, when paired with the Viridescent Venerer artifact set. Her potential is high, making her a valuable addition to most rosters. Securing her second constellation significantly enhances her shield regeneration via normal attacks. Furthermore, she's a likely acquisition during the Arlecchino or Clorinde banner pulls.
Other top contenders include Xingqiu, Xiangling, and Yaoyao. Yaoyao shines as a potent Dendro healer, effectively sustaining your team's health. While her skill primarily heals the active character, it also damages enemies. Her burst offers team-wide healing. She's a fantastic choice for bloom, hyperbloom, aggravate, spread, or even burning team compositions. Remarkably, she's fully functional at Constellation Zero, negating the need for additional copies.
Veteran favorites Xingqiu and Xiangling remain among Genshin Impact's best four-star characters. Xingqiu excels as a sub-DPS, applying substantial Hydro damage, making him indispensable in freeze and vape teams. He also provides damage reduction and minor healing. His final constellation dramatically amplifies his capabilities.
Xiangling, a Pyro sub-DPS, unleashes a pyronado that inflicts significant Pyro damage, ideal for triggering reactions. While readily obtainable through Spiral Abyss floor 5, her constellations dramatically boost her power, particularly Constellation Four, which extends her burst duration by 40%.
If you already possess these characters, focus on obtaining constellations for any other four-star characters offered. Don't let this opportunity to strengthen your existing team go to waste.
